Monthly Student Attendance Report

Use the Monthly Student Attendance report to display attendance per student per day, including holidays. This report displays the days the student was not enrolled, absent, or in attendance. The days in session and carry forward, gains, losses, and ending enrollment appear at the end of the report.

By default, the codes and values included in the report represent full days of absences and attendance even if the school is set up with attendance conversions that count partial absences and attendance. When attendance is calculated using the Attendance Conversions (defined in School Setup > Attendance Conversions), it is possible to get an attendance value of, for example, 1.5 for a 2-day period, meaning they were absent half a day in those two day periods. But the Monthly Student Attendance report does not report a 1.5 attendance. It reports 2 full days of attendance and 0 absences. It does not count half-day absences.

To include codes and values for partial day absences and attendance, select the Include Partial Attendance checkbox before submitting.

The report adjusts to reflect Clock In/Clock Out values if used when recording attendance.

    Attendance Mode

    Use the pop-up menu to select one the attendance recording methods for which you want to run this report.

    • Use Default: Searches for and displays report output based on FTE. By default, this menu option is selected. If your school uses more than one FTE to differentiate students, such as full time and part time, and you want to run the report for those sets of students, the only way to effectively run these groupings with different modes and conversion items is to use the default.
    • Daily: Searches for and displays report output by day.
    • Meeting: Searches for and displays report output by period.
    • Interval: Searches for and displays report output by interval.

    For more information about attendance modes, see Attendance Overview.

    Note: Menu options appear based on your attendance setup configuration. For the Use Default menu option to appear, FTEs must be set up and the “Use default settings” checkbox on the Attendance Preferences page must be selected. For the Daily or Meeting menu options to appear, the Daily or Meeting checkboxes on the Attendance Preferences page must be selected.
